Sportchek Fuck You🖕 aggggghhhhdjdjfjnf
I bought 29" tubes maybe about 2-3 months ago as my rear tire blewout on a nail back then. After replacing both I thought both felt kinda flimsy but thought eh maybe this is how it always was/maybe this is fine.
OH HELL NAW!~ smh.
I should’ve figured better. And before anyone asks:
- yes I made sure the rims were free of debris and any rough edges.
- no; there was no glass or nails that punctured the tires.
- yes it was filled to the recommended 35 PSI.
Anyways I def learned my lesson on buying cheap ass fucking tubes and also forgetting my allen key set. If I go half assed and buy cheap shit again well that’s on me and I probably have dementia at that point.
I’m still seething by how much time I spent having to trek back.
Apparently sportchek just recently told locations to stop selling one of their inner tube brands and is in the process of sending stores new ones.
Also, if the bike/wheel was recently purchased from sportchek, check the rim itself, certain american brands have been leaving the surface rough in spots you wouldn’t normally tape.
